Description:
Original directory name: "26_Projektmappe". File shows the BMW Welt project development through two documents likely destined to be printed and bound. The documentation of the project is made using mostly images: plans, technical drawings, renderings, and photographs. File contains the InDesign original files for these documents, with supporting linked images and font files. It also contains PDF versions of the documents, although it is not possible to confirm that the PDF files are exact copies of the InDesign files. There is a significant amount of duplicates in subdirectories which were not deleted in order to avoid breaking dependencies between files. Most common file formats: Tagged Image File Format, Acrobat PDF 1.5 - Portable Document Format, Acrobat PDF 1.4 - Portable Document Format, JPEG File Interchange Format, Adobe Illustrator

DR1987:0064
Description:
- Prints DR1987:0064 - DR1987:0069 are probably for a mausoleum and include 3 elevations, 2 sections and 1 plan. The mausoleum is almost square in plan with a protruding semidomed apse and a portico "in antis" consisting of two Tuscan engaged pillars supporting a thick architrave which runs around the exterior of the mausoleum. The structure is raised on a podium and has a gabled roof perched high above the main structure, surmounted by a cupola crowned with an orb and cross. On the interior, the barrel vaulted nave is separated from the apse by a rood-like screen pierced by three doors and by a Corinthian colonnade. The chancel and apse areas are slightly raised and are accessed by a flight of stairs. A spiral staircase on the left side of the narthex provides access to the gallery, upper level, and cupola. A tomb monument or sarcophagus, composed of a rectangular masonry slab surmounted by a vertical slab decorated with a recumbent female figure, is located at the centre of the lateral wall of the nave under the fanlight.

Description:
This directory contains chiefly Virtools files and CAD files, including 3DS and Maya. The Virtools files in this directory include player files and supporting files for two objects. The first is titled "keep at contant distance thing," which allows the user to interact with two objects that are constantly kept at a constant distance from one another. The other player file has several versions, all titled "Virtools," which allow the user to experiment with the volume of a Muscle-like structure by moving different vertices within the structure. The Maya files contain various 3D wireframe models, and the 3DS files largely come back as "not found." Original directory name: "75 virtools muscle simulation". Most common file formats: Unidentified, Maya Binary File Format, Plain Text File, 3D Studio, Hypertext Markup Language.

Ross & Macdonald fonds
AP013
Synopsis:
The Ross & Macdonald fonds is comprised of documents concerning the work of six successive architectural firms: Ross & MacFarlane (1905-1912), Ross & Macdonald (1913-1944), Ross & Ross (1944-1946), Ross, Patterson, Townsend & Heughan (1946-1950), Ross, Patterson, Townsend & Fish (1950-1958), and Ross, Fish, Duschenes & Barrett (1958-1976). The greatest concentration of work was produced in Montreal where each of the firms maintained their head office, but there were also a large number of works executed in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. The fonds contains 27 884 drawings (24 294 originals plus 3 590 reproductions), 236 photographs, and 18.6 metres of textual documents.

DR1986:0704
Description:
- DR1986:0704X represents a bird's-eye view of an imagined zoological garden. In the foreground, immediately behind an iron and stone fence, appear a series of small, whimsical structures in a Chinese or mixed Chinese-Indian style. These structures, together with their adjoining enclosures, house a variety of animals and are scattered among a number of fountains, ponds and clustered shrubs. - In the middle ground, on the central axis of the garden, rises a long, two-storey structure with a large, projecting pavilion in the centre and a tower at either end. Both levels of this structure are encased in verandas and the end towers and central pavilion are capped with pointed domes in an Indian style. The oval area before this structure is enclosed by two curved colonnades open on both sides and supporting a peaked, tile roof. This construction is obviously an orientalized version of St. Peter's Colonnade in Rome. - Further back and behind the long structure occur additional pavilions in a Chinese style, most notably a three-storey pagoda. On axis, and still further back, rises a second long, palace-like structure, sketched in a vaguely Mogul style. The entire ensemble is set in a nondescript, generalized landscape.
